Winter… are we sick of it yet? I know I am. At this point in the season all my clothes start to look sort of blah. I guess I go through this in the summer too, but it’s harder in the colder months because I wear more clothing. I’ve gotten so sick of wearing jeans, sweaters and booties, my go-to uniform this winter, and am trying to mix it up when I get a chance.

This maxi dress will  be perfect for spring and summer, but I couldn’t resist breaking it out a bit early. When I topped it with my favorite moto jacket I felt just brave enough to go open toe. But I may be jumping the gun there. continue reading

Now that it’s the holiday season it’s time to step up your jewelry game a bit! I’m excited to share a peek at PANDORA Jewelry’s Crystallized Blues collection. This collection is perfect for adding a little extra sparkle to your holiday party looks, or if you want to bring a little glam into your everyday look.

I wear a lot of gold/rose gold jewelry but silver is such a classic, especially with the blue crystal pops. My favorite part of the collection is how customizable it is. You can add charms to personalize necklaces and bracelets and your stack will really be an #ArtOfYou expression. continue reading

Now that it’s November, it’s finally starting to fell like fall in Southern California. I mean, 75 and sunny is fall, right? It does get cooler in the mornings and evenings and I’m always looking for light jackets to keep me comfortable. Layering is key! I was so excited to find this MISSGUIDED trench on ASOS and even more excited to wear it.

It so soft and buttery I feel like I’m wearing the most comfy PJ’s and never want to take it off. The olive color is a neutral and it will work with so many things until we’re back up in the 80’s. continue reading

The day we left New York we had the whole morning free to do whatever we wanted. We picked up bagels and coffee and headed over to the high line to picnic. It was extra hot and I tried to stay cool by throwing on the lightest clothes I packed and my new favorite hat. I try to pack as many neutrals as possible to make situations like this a little easier. These shorts were a last minute addition to my suitcase, but I would have been lost without them! They’re on super sale right now and are still available in a couple sizes. continue reading

Happy Tuesday! Sorry for my absence yesterday, I had a jam-packed weekend and was a little under the weather because of it. But I’m back with this new post from our first day in New York a couple of weeks ago! We stayed at The Paul, which is a newish boutique hotel near Madison Square park, but more on that another day. We were so excited to have a free day and spent the whole day taking advantage of all the city has to offer.

We roamed around everywhere from Madison Square Park to Central Park and even the village, so by the end of the day we were exhausted. I packed some of my travel favs (rompers!) and was not disappointed. They’re the perfect piece to throw on at nine am and still be comfortable in at nine pm when you’re in line for dessert at Shake Shack. I bought this one right before we left and stayed cool in the heat and humidity because it’s so light weight. I think it would also be cute with some ankle booties and a duster cardigan come fall. continue reading

Happy Monday! I’m excited to start this week with this fun wrap dress. I wore it a few weeks ago to a friend’s Birthday dinner in Laguna Beach. It’s such a perfect summer dress that can be dressed up or down depending on occasion. I’ve never worn a maxi wrap dress before, but now I’m a new fan. 🙂 These sunglasses are another fab pair from DITTO – don’t forget you can get your first month free there when you use the code ASHNFASHN to sign up!  continue reading
